>>Can you set your default directory to a network server name? For example, "Set Default To //myserver/apps/myprog" I do this in VFP6 and when I set a variable to it, say lcMyProgDir, then run a command like "set defa to &lcMyProgDir" in my program, I receive an error "Invalid Path or FileName."

FWIW: My associate in the office just happened to look at the M$ KB on UNC usage, and as I recall, according to what he printed out, VFP-6 fully supports UNC coding for everything except CD and SET DEFAULT... Easy enough to try it...
